Speak Arabic do you? ;)
Heh, any relationship to that "massacre"-game? =P
It would indeed be very cool with more (proper) voice recognition games. Should it become more mainstream, there are several non-gaming uses for it as well.
Oh man, these must be worth absolutely sh1tloads by now!
How can anyone NOT love guns btw?
I'm impressed. Do they actually make the map editor work smooth on a console game? That's impressive.
Still, being a SC fanatic, I am probably only going to make SC2 maps when it comes out ;)
True, but some cards are still sub-par, as he explains in the article...
Well, to a great extent that's what Pixel Shader 2.0 does as well. It does more, but that's one of the things you'll see clearly. Also water effects, but they are not particularly serious in SC2. Just a pool here or there.
Still, considering it's native to DX9, even Vista users will probably not see a huge increase in performance.
Actually, if you check his "main page" there, or that "tech paper" from Blizzard, there is a good set of guidelines on what can and can't run the game. Only the shader and Graphics cards have been confirmed from "open" Blizzard sources, but you come a long way with the right graphics card!
I'm really impressed by how much information you can get out of knowing the difference between DirectX 9 and 10. I thought it was just a little something they added exclusively to Vista to force people to use it...
I got a CE box of WAR waiting at the post office, I can't pick it up today =(
Yeah, too bad I'd like more PC news from the far east ^^
I must say, the game industry is rather the same everywhere, but things just get mroe interesting for me when they come from Japan ^^
I don't care if it's too linear, the game looks GREAT!
Not sure about it. I'm certainly hopeful. The level of polish Blizzard has on even their pre-alpha stuff is so good you get blinded by it....
Yeah, well, you are not wrong!
I'm mostly surprised by the clear answer to the MMO Question. A Resounding NO, and implying they don't want to make it...
I am of the opinion that the second one of these was terrific. I never saw the first one, but I thought it was brilliant.
It wasn't a commercial for Vista (thank GOD!), it was funny, and they took a bit of a piss out of themselves. I thought it was golden comedy.
There really is no other way to show them as "human" either. I am sad they stopped it.
That. Is. SO. Cool.
I am such a huge StarWars fan (well, not quite "fanatic"), and this just looks awesome!
Bit of a low score is it? o.O
I think Arabic localization for games could be an untapped resource...
